Learn: The opening ceremonies for every Olympic Games must include formal speeches, a parade of athletes, songs and dances that showcase the culture of the host country. Follow this link to watch the highlights of opening ceremonies for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, England.
In the opening ceremony for the London Olympics there were a number of famous English people including the Queen, the Spice Girls, David Bowie, U2, the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney. Imagine that we were going to host the Olympics here in New Zealand in 2024 and you were invited to be on the committee that decides who is invited to participate in the opening ceremonies. As a member of the group you must choose one of the following people to be in the opening ceremony: Richie McCaw (rugby player), Lorde (singer), Kane Williamson (cricket player), Maria Tutaia (netball player), John Key (prime minister of New Zealand) or Shaun Johnson (league player). On your blog, tell us who you think is the best person to choose and explain why you think that they are the best choice!
I choose Shaun Johnson because I know that is the most successful Rugby League Game, When I went to his game in Mt Smart Stadium he was the only person that shared the ball and also being fair with the other players. He would be a great person to give advice to people if they had a chance to be a great/successful league player.
Thanks and have a great holiday!!
I think that you have made a very good decision! I really like Shaun Johnson as well and am a huge league fan. I read in your blog that you have seen Shaun compete at Mt Smart stadium. You are really lucky! When did you go to see him? Was it earlier this year?
